My letter to the Disciplinary Comm (see above) resulted in a prompt reply: "RE: Mitchell Harlin Wxxx No 06 CI 1745 and Lawrence Frxxx No 06 CI 1803 We will request that the attorney submit a response to the matters you have raised. A copy of the attorney's response may be sent to you for your comments. We will then determine whether further investigation is warranted. We will contact you if we require additional information from you and will advise you of any decision we reach in the matter. Sincerely, Myrrha B. Guxxx, Counsel" If more people complain about these 2 then perhaps they will get jacked up by the Disciplinary Commission.

This is a bunch of bottom feeding debt collectors in Chicago, they buy old clapped out debts for a few pennies on the dollar and 'mine them' to get paid for these old out of date debts that no one else can collect. They have absolutely NO interest in knowing if the debt is a just debt of is an error. They do NOT reply to complaints and they use the various credit reporting agencies as a level to get people to pay. Report them to the Illinois Supreme Court like I did below: --------------------------- April 11 2006 Director Attorney Registration & Disciplinary Commission Of the Supreme Court of Illinois One Prudential Plaza 130 East Randolph Drive Chicago, IL. 60601-6219 Complaint Against: Mitchell Wexler & Michael Friedman DBA: Wexler & Wexler and also Friedman & Wexler Dear Director: The above attorneys operate a 'collection agency' at 500 W. Madison St. Ste 2910, Chicago, Ill. 60661 (Tel: 312 474-1000, 800 843-4656). I have repeatedly corresponded with their office regarding a 'supposed' debt of $1250 from March 1987. This has been placed onto my various credit reports (see encl.: Trans Union Report of 3/31/06 - item #A enclosed) as a collection item. This is the only black mark on my report and when challenged by Trans Union on my behalf this firm has "verified" the debt several times. I have pointed out to this firm that: 1) the debt was not mine, 2) the debt was from 1987, not from 1/2004 as they claim, 3) the debt was originally from CORUS BANK (see TU affiliate bureau Merchants Association of Florida, Inc. Report of 89/19/97 - item #B enclosed) and it is a 'Refreshed' debt, 4) their firm is in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act by reporting such a refreshed debt and claiming it is a current obligation and not 19 years old Attorneys Wexler and Friedman are in violation of several FCRA sections and have not responded when challenged on the accuracy of their reporting to the various credit agencies. My otherwise perfect credit report at Trans Union is marred by this incorrect information which they have not corrected despite many attempts to have them delete the incorrect information. They are unresponsive to my complaints. This firm is not a member of the Chicago Better Business Bureau but due to many complaints it is rated by as 'unsatisfactory due to unanswered complaints'. I ask that attorneys Mitchell Wexler and Michael Friedman be disciplined by the Registration and Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois, that they be suspended from the practice of law for at least 2 years and that they be compelled to correct the flawed information that they have provided to the various credit reporting agencies. Sincerely yours, Name/Address Here ======================== So submit your own complaint like I have done, maybe if enough people do complain something will happen.
